Daddy's baby, what's got you thinking, What's got you sinking so low? Is there something I should know, Something new to you? Daddy's baby, fussing and fretting, Keeping on getting it wrong. She can only last so long, She’s going for a song, So sing her a lullaby … by, Baby, don't like to cry. So sing her a lullaby … by, Swaddle and swing her, Sing her a lullaby. She makes her feelings known to me, Her ev’ry side is shown to me. And in our time alone My love has surely grown of its own, Solid as a stepping stone, As silently as the dawn was breaking, Soft and clear, And my tears were dry And my fears had flown, So I called my love my home.
